Garage floor coatings can be installed over most concrete garage floors, and will typically consist of a primer, a base coat and a top coat. The primer coat is applied first to ensure a strong bond. The primer should be applied according to the manufacturer directions with a roller tool and allowed to dry. When the surface is dry to the touch, the epoxy or polyaspartic base coat should be applied. You also have the option of adding color flakes to the base coat. These color flakes should be broadcast evenly over the wet base coat surface. Lastly, the garage floor coating system needs to be sealed with a top coat, which can be either epoxy or polyaspartic based.
Your new garage floor will need to dry for 48 hours before allowing foot traffic, and up to five days for vehicle traffic. Always follow the manufacturer directions for your specific products.
